Hypothetical Question 1
First:
Think of a level of stakes that you are comfortable playin NL cash at...

Second:
You get dealt KK on a 10 seated NL Cash table and make a standard 3 x BB raise in EP. Followed by a late pos re-raise of 3 x your initial raise. You proceed to call --- a Jack High rainbow flop and your opponent puts you all in for your original buy in?

Fold or Call ? ? ?

Hypothetical Question 2
First:
Think of a level of stakes that you are UNCOMFORTABLE playin NL cash at...

Second:
You get dealt KK on a 10 seated NL Cash table and make a standard 3 x BB raise in EP. Followed by a late pos re-raise of 3 x your initial raise. You proceed to call --- a Jack High rainbow flop and your opponent puts you all in for your original buy in?

Fold or Call ? ? ?

Hypothetical Question 3
If everytime you got dealt KK & regardless of your opponent you tried to get all your stack in the middle pre-flop and succeeded. Would this be a + EV play ?

Thanks for your comments in advance

1. Re-raise pre flop.
2. What are you doing there?
3. Yes, I think so, but I've got the flu and can't work it out properly Smiley

3. Not at my levels (25c/50c).  Kings are a bad hand, people can't put down Ace Suited and that's it.

You HAVE to know the stack sizes.  It makes a difference whether you start with 30BB or 300BB.  Has no one here read The Bible?  (I mean Reuben/Ciaffone.)

You have asked the wrong question.  Currently, you are asking "Would it be +EV if, every time you got dealt KK, your opponent magically went all-in?".  Of course it would.  (I'm assuming that when you say 'succeeded' you mean 'succeeded to get a call'.)

I think the question you meant to ask was: "If my opponent moves all-in preflop and I have KK, would it be +EV to always call regardless of who he was?".  Of course it wouldn't.  Proof: imagine you are playing against a player who only play Aces. QED.

By the way, excellent use of italics and bold.

We have had the old "can you ever folded KK preflop" debate a load of times and i think just about everyone has, BUT overall it can only be profitable, ok it will lose x% of times to any random hand but long term it will return a profit.
